Genesis 31:43-55 - The Agreement Between Jacob And Laban
43 Then responded Laban and said unto Jacob - the daughters, are my daughters, And the sons, are my sons, And the sheep are my sheep, And, all that, thou, beholdest, To me doth it belong! But to my daughters, what can I do to these this day, Or to their sons whom they have borne? 44 Now, therefore, come on! Let us solemnise a covenant, I and thou, - So shall it be a witness betwixt me and thee.
45 So Jacob took a stone, - and set it up as a pillar. 46 Then said Jacob to his brethren - Gather stones. And they took stones and made a heap, - and they did eat there, by the heap. 47 And Laban called it, Jegar-sahadutha, - but, Jacob, called it, Galeed.
48 Then said Laban: This heap, be witness betwixt me, and thee, to-day. For this cause, is the name thereof called Galeed; 49 also, The Watch Tower, as to which it is said, Yahweh watch betwixt me and thee, when we are parted one from another. 50 If thou oppress my daughters, or if thou take wives besides my daughters, - there may be no man with us - see! God, be witness betwixt me, and thee! 51 And Laban said to Jacob - Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have set betwixt me, and thee: 52 A witness, be this heap, and, a witness, the pillar, - That, I, am not to pass, unto thee, over this heap, And, thou, art not to pass, unto me, over this heap and this pillar for harm. 53 The Gods of Abraham and the Gods of Nahor judge betwixt us - the Gods of their fathers. And Jacob sware by the Dread of his father Isaac: 54 and Jacob offered sacrifice in the mountain, and called on his brethren to eat bread. So they did eat bread, and tarried the night in the mountain. 55 And Laban rose up early in the morning, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban went his way and returned to his place.
